Question

The father distributes his wealth among his three children in the ratio of 1: 2: 3 and keeps 100000 rupees for himself. If his total assets are 2.5 lakh rupees, then what should be given to each child as a share?​

Answer 1

Answer :-

Given :-

• Amount distributed to his children in the ratio :- 1 : 2 : 3

• Amount he keeps for himself = Rs. 100000

• Total amount = Rs. 250000

To Find :-

• Share of each child

Solution :-

Amount left for the childern = Total amount - Amount he kept for himself

= 250000 - 100000

= 150000

Amount to he distributed among childern = Rs. 150000

Let the share of children be x , 2x and 3x respectively.

→ x + 2x + 3x = 150000

→ 6x = 150000

→ x = 150000 / 6

→ x = 25000

Share of childern :-

• x = Rs. 25000
• 2x = 2 × 25000 = Rs. 50000
• 3x = 3 × 25000 = 75000

Hence, share of each child is Rs. 25000 , Rs. 50000 and Rs. 75000 respectively.
